Chapter 57 The Auction .
Lauren didnt want to indulge the driver .
She turned around and walked straight back into the villa without a second glance .
Now it was the drivers turn to panic .
Mr.
David and Madam Alice had explicitly instructed me to make sure that Lauren made it to the auction .
He hadnt expected that just a little attitude from him would make that little brat dare to give him the cold shoulder and refuse to go .
The driver quickly got out of the car and chased after her into the mansion .
He dropped his former arrogance and put on a pleading smile , Ms.
Bennett , what are you doing ? Mr.
David and Madam Alice are waiting for you at the auction .
If you dont hurry , youll miss it ! Lauren sat calmly on the sofa and poured herself a cup of tea .
She sipped it leisurely , not even looking at the driver .
The driver was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan .
He tried every sweet word he could think of , almost falling to his knees .
Only then did Lauren finally look up .
As a driver , you should know your position .
Dont stick your neck out for things that dont concern you Yes , yes … The driver nodded repeatedly , even though he was seething inside .
Ms.
Bennett , its all my fault .
Please , lets go quickly .
Lauren continued to slowly sip her tea .
It was already 8.00 p.m.
, and the auction had begun .
The driver was sweating profusely and regretted his earlier behavior .
After another half hour , Lauren finally put down her teacup .
Lets go .
The driver felt like hed been granted amnesty .
He rushed to the car and opened the back door for Lauren Ms.
Bennett , please get in Only then did Lauren get into the car , satisfied .
Meanwhile , the auction was already half over .
The Bennett family of four sat in the VIP section .
Davids face grew darker by the minute .
The auction has been going on for so long .
Where is that ungrateful brat , Lauren ? Alice was also worried .
David , do you have Lauries number ? Call her and ask her where she is .
Why should I have her number ? Dont you ? David snapped .
If I had it , I would have called her by now ! Alice stamped her foot in frustration .
This child , how can she be so Irresponsible ! Didnt we tell her how important tonights event is ? David gritted his teeth .
In my opinion , that brat is doing this on purpose Elliot , who had been silently frowning , pulled out his cell phone .
Ill call the driver at home .
The call was quickly connected , and he barked into the phone , Why isnt Lauren here yet ? Mr.
Elliot , we just left the house , the drivers voice came through , sounding helpless .
Elliots anger flared up .
What do you mean you just left ? Didnt I tell you that the auction starts at 8 oclock ? Its already 8:30 , and youre telling me you just lef ? 172 1227 PM M Chapter 57 The Auction before the auction ends , he snapped before hanging up .
Finished Willow , who had been silent the whole time , was completely focused on the Brooker family Bossman from Balewood .
She had only heard rumors about him that he was unstable due to certain … shortcomings , that he was ruthless and sadistic , with a penchant for torturing women .
In her imagination , the Brooker family Bossman should have been a menacing figure .
But to her surprise , he was strikingly handsome .
His face was like a masterpiece , with deep contours and smooth lines that exuded nobility .
She couldnt take her eyes off him , feeling that the rumors might not be true .
At that moment , she suddenly didnt want Lauren to marry him anymore .
Lauren was just an unloved little brat .
She deserved to be trampled on , not to marry into a prestigious family and have a more handsome man than her own fance , Kenneth .
Especially since this man was not only handsome but also had impeccable taste .
de suit he was wearing Her gaze drifted down and landed on the custom made Forget the fabric and the tailoring .
The embroidered red peony on the chest of the suit was the finishing touch that elevated .
it beyond high end custom to something even more extraordinary .
Could a man with such refined taste really be as terrible as the rumors suggested ? Willow had her doubts .
If the Bossman was really as bad as the rumors said , I would be happy to see Lauren marry him .
But if the rumors were false , wouldnt that mean that Lauren was getting an incredible deal ? No , I couldnt just sit back and let that happen .
With this thought , Willow picked up her phone and sent a message to the driver .
After reading it , the driver glanced at Lauren through the rearview mirror .
She was leaning back in her seat , eyes closed , seemingly resting .
